"Logan dear, are you alright?" there was a shift on the couch as he felt his mother sit next to him, "you were awake late mom, were you sick again?" the little boy asks and the mother looks at the comic book he was holding.

"Yes dear, I was sick again. your father was helping me, next time you hear just go back to sleep" Logan shakes his head "but I want to help mom, when will you go to the doctors?" she smiles sadly seeing the desperation form in his voice.

"Dear I'm fine, I'm just a little bit ill you need not worry, now get ready for dinner, were having spaghetti" taking a deep breath of air, Logan nods putting the comic book down and going to wash up.

She stood when her head felt less like a helium balloon and walked to the dining room where her husband was placing the plates on the table, looking at her plate she didn't feel hungry but stomached it anyway. "Starlight you alright?" their husband asks gently, they nod carefully and sit in their seat looking at the normal portion size of food.

Logan ran to his seat and began helping himself to the pasta-based meal, before seeing his mom carefully have a bite of the dinner. Something is not right and they know it.

Logan was writing things down in his little notebook after getting ready for bed when there was a knock on his door, "dear, you ready for bed?" Logan looks at his mother, she was looking even paler than before "yeah mom" he says hopping off his desk chair and jumping into bed.

"Mom?" he asks while she tucking him into bed, "yes dear?" "Why do you and dad wear ties?" she seemed shocked by that "well, your father and I work in a very professional workplace, so it is normal for us to wear a tie its sort of second nature for us to wear when we're not working now too, why do you ask?"

Logan shuffles deeper into the sheets, "I was wanting to know if I could start wearing a tie too, is all" logan mumbles into the covers. he felt a hand run through his hair looking up at his mother she was smiling, "let's see if we have any that will suit you tomorrow, ok dear?"

Logan nods feeling a kiss on his forehead and his glasses get removed from his face, "goodnight logan. I love you so very much"

"good night mom, I love you too." With a silent click, the lamp was turned off the only light that came into my room was through a small gap through the slightly ajar door.

A small cough was heard on the other side of it as Logan drifted off to sleep.
